Hired in Pharmaceutical Sales
Calling from L.A. Wanted to give you word. It was a long interview process, but I got a position with (a large pharmaceutical company). Worked out really well. My territory is going to be Beverly Hills. Company car, good bennies, decent salary, good bonus. Since I’m switching industries, I followed your negotiating process. Long term, it’s good. It’s a really good company. Thank you for your help! –Tim M., sales
Salary Increase of 22% - Despite Career Change
They saw my resume, and even though they were about to hire someone else, they said, “I’ve got to meet her!” I went on the interview and they said, “We love your background. When can you start?” Because of the coaching and the resume, I was able to negotiate a 22% increase in my salary, despite the fact that I completely changed careers! –Robyn P., technical writer)

Excellent Work/Life Balance
I have accepted a full-time position as a Senior Programmer/Analyst. I’m glad you and I talked about what was negotiable because I was able to get another week of vacation over their initial offer. Additionally, they are willing to give me the technical training I need to fulfill the job requirements. This job will provide an excellent work/life balance for my time with my family. Funny, this is the first job I interviewed for! –Kim S., MBA, senior programmer/analyst
From Downsized to Hired
I’m in my training program now and wanted to let you know that I got my offer on the first interview! You were a big shot in the arm for me. The best thing that could have happened to me was being downsized. You helped me realize that and you re-energized me. The company offered a more than $7,000 increase from my previous position. (Your salary negotiation tips were really a big help in this area.) They have full training, benefits and even encourage future growth! Just wanted to call and say THANKS! This position is really my bag! –Sheryl M., RN
